by Bradley Sands

The highlights of this pamphlet of absurdist word-boil are Perfect Everything by Ben Stein, Platypus by Shane Jones and Steve Aylett's The Burnished Adventures of Injury Mouse. I feel the downpoints of the mediocre stories in this pamphlet are their overself-indulgence of their own absurdity.
Steve Aylett hurts my teeth. This is one of my favorite - if not my favorite - piece by Aylett.

Ben Stein wrote a great piece here in the form of a play that really makes you go back over it a second time and indulge in the beauty of the existence of the plants in this piece.

Platypus reminds me of a poem by Russell Edson called Ape.
